An average movie

Nowadays, I have Netflix and Popcorn and not only I have since then an endless selection of movies to choose from but, as a result, I have become slightly more picky regarding the movies I watch. Before, I used to watch pretty much anything as long as it was starring one or two actors I was interested in and, as a result, I would sometimes end up watching some really obscure features. This movie was a perfect example and the only reason I watched it was because it was featuring Eddie Murphy. In fact, back in the 90's, Eddie Murphy's career was already not in a really good shape and, at some point, he made this vampire movie with Wes Craven who was obviously one of the great horror masters. At least, we have to give Murphy some credit for trying something different but, unfortunately, the end-result turned out to be just really disappointing. Indeed, they basically tried to combine Murphy's humor and Craven's horror but the whole thing was never really funny or scary. Back then when it was released, this flick was a huge flop and it wasnโ€™t really surprising. Fortunately, the year after, Wes Craven would direct 'Scream' and make an impressive come-back. For Eddie Murphy, unfortunately, he kept making some worthless comedies without much success. Anyway, to conclude, even though the whole thing had some potential, it was again another average effort from Eddie Murphy and it is not really worth a look whatsosever.
